The work from home workforce in the United States is small but growing fast. While many companies are downsizing, cutting jobs, or declaring hiring freezes, there are some progressive companies that are cutting costs by adopting telecommuting business models.

What is telecommuting?

Telecommuting is when a person works from home on a computer and/or telephone system that is tied in to the principal network of the company/employer.

Research indicates that folks that work from home are much more productive, have lower stress levels, are less likely to call off due to illness, and enjoy a higher quality of life. Accordingly, businesses that hire people to work from home are able to decrease turnovers, step-up efficiency, step-up productivity, step-up profits, and step-up customer satisfaction. Furthermore, teleworking is environmentally friendly, as it reduces highway congestion, fuel use, and vehicular air pollution.
